Updated: January 7, 2009

Applies To: Windows Server 2008 R2

Plug and Play Extensions (PnP-X) enables a computer to discover networked devices and install them on the local system using Plug and Play (PnP). In Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008, PnP-X allows network-connected devices to be discovered and installed on a client computer as if they were connected physically. A device driver is installed in the Windows operating system to support the detected device.
